This includes a few separate changes:
- pass visibility information of declarations (depending on wether the
declaration was in a ```catala-metadata block or not)
- add reasonable hash computation functions to discriminate the interfaces. In
particular:
* Uids have a `hash` function that depends on their string, but not on their
actual uid (which is not stable between runs of the compiler) ; the existing
`hash` function and its uses have been renamed to `id`.
* The `Hash` module provides the tools to properly combine hashes, etc. While
we rely on `Hashtbl.hash` for the atoms, we take care not to use it on any
recursive structure (it relies on a bounded traversal).
- insert the hashes in the artefacts, and properly check and report those (for
OCaml)
**Remains to do**:
- Record and check the hashes in the other backends
- Provide a way to get stable inline-test outputs in the presence of module
hashes
- Provide a way to write external modules that don't break at every Catala
update.
The module is renamed to `Mark`, and functions renamed to avoid redundancy:
`Marked.mark` is now `Mark.add`
`Marked.unmark` is now `Mark.remove`
`Marked.map_under_mark` is now simply `Mark.map`
etc.
`Marked.same_mark_as` is replaced by `Mark.copy`, but with the arguments
swapped (which seemed more convenient throughout)
Since a type `Mark.t` would indicate a mark, and to avoid confusion, the type
`Marked.t` is renamed to `Mark.ed` as a shorthand for `Mark.marked` ; this part
can easily be removed if that's too much quirkiness.
This uses the same disambiguation mechanism put in place for
structures, calling the typer on individual rules on the desugared AST
to propagate types, in order to resolve ambiguous operators like `+`
to their strongly typed counterparts (`+!`, `+.`, `+$`, `+@`, `+$`) in
the translation to scopelang.
The patch includes some normalisation of the definition of all the
operators, and classifies them based on their typing policy instead of
their arity. It also adds a little more flexibility:
- a couple new operators, like `-` on date and duration
- optional type annotation on some aggregation constructions
The `Shared_ast` lib is also lightly restructured, with the `Expr`
module split into `Type`, `Operator` and `Expr`.
